I don't read much anymore, but I did take the time for this one and I am glad that I did. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and wish there was more of Nick's backstory to read. Not sure what ratings do, never seem to have done much, but I give it a 10/10. Well done. My only complaint, it was somewhat short. Then again, I never could crank out anything short...when the characters are this intriguing, you want to read more.

Author's Response: Aww, I'm so grateful you wanted to read this. Plans for more Nicky are ongoing; there is definitely going to be a companion story to go after this, but I'm not sure about before this yet. There will be eventfully, though.

Thank you so much for leaving reviews for this, I'm so glad that you liked it. :D

*Takes deep breath to calm myself down* I can read this!
Oh no! Nicky is screaming about the voices in his head. ;( I'm so sad!
Nicky has had such a sad life, I want to hug him so much and tell him that it's going to be okay, and take it all away from him so he can live a normal life.
I want Nicky to live forever, ;( I'm already tearing up... I'm so sad. And he's trying to make a joke about it all and ... I just want to hug him.
*cries* The Reaper *sobs uncontrollably*
I loved this story so much and I loved how you wrote it. You're fabulous do you know that? Even if you do break apart my heart. :P But I still love you anyways! :D Such a fantastic story!

Author's Response: You did it!

Yes, he is. Poor Nicky. I know we're sad. :(

He does. I'm so sorry you have to reds what will happen after I've told you. I don't want you to be sad. *hugs you and Nicky*

No! Nicky's body is already shaking and he's using his powers. Now I'm sad! He puts himself through so much and I wish so hard that he didn't have to go through this all. Awww Kieron is using his power as well, even if it's only creating smoke.
Hehe Kieron used his fancy charm of kicking a door in :P He's awesome!!
No! Nicky don't be trapped in there with Victoria! No! No! No! No!
I'm so glad that Nicky got rid of Victoria, but at what cost! *cries* I'm so worried!
Nicky be safe! *sends healing thoughts*
I'm so scared!! I'm also starting to fall into denial over this.
Brilliant intense action packed drama!! Now onto the next one. *cries*

Author's Response: He puts himself through so much to help his family, he's so brave and awesome. I wish he didn't have to, sometimes I wish he didn't want to. But that's why he's so awesome.

I'm scared, I'm sad, I'm terrified. am I ready to carry on? *hides behind my feelings*
I really hope that they can get Victoria out of the house! And it's pretty creepy how her name is so similar to Victoires! :O
Aww I don't want Nicky hurt :( He does go through a lot though, Fleur is definitely right about that.
It's so sad what Teddy and Victoire are having to go through with this house, I hate this poltergeist!
No! Ryan can't be gone!! He needs to be with Teddy!. which he's not!
I'm so scared! Please don't use Nicky! *hugs him tightly*
An amazing chapter Sam! I love it! :D

Author's Response: Aww, so many feels. I'm sorry. *hugs*

Yes. The name is creepy, it's why she feels so strongly about Ryan. She believes it's a second chance.

Hi Sam!
This chapter was so bittersweet! I'm sad that this story is over, but happy they got Ryan back, but then I'm sad again when I think about Nick! It's so sad that he knows he's going to die so young, and that there's nothing he can do to stop it. But I think it shows how brave he is if he would do it all again to save Ryan. I really enjoyed reading this story, even if it creeped me out at some parts! Haha. Great work, Sam, and I can't wait to see what else you come up with in the future! 10/10
Cassie :)

Author's Response: Hey, Cassie!

I know, there's a lot of emotions with this story. I cried a little while writing Nicky's part. I love him and how brave he is, but sometimes I wish he wasn't.

Hi Sam!
This chapter was brilliant! I'm so happy that they got Ryan back! But I'm really worried about Nicky now! I think he's such an interesting character, and I love how he and Kieron have their own special abilities. But I don't want Nicky to keep using his abilities if they're killing him! You're characters are all just so brilliantly written! They're so complex, and I love that. Great work, as usual! 10/10
Cassie :)

Author's Response: Hey, Cassie!

I know, but he's awesome and he's always going to use his magic if it means helping his family.

That was unbelievably good! My heart was going a mile a minute throughout the entire chapter! I can't believe this Victoria Winters poltergeist took Ryan! And I also can't believe that you managed to cleverly avoid giving us any information on her at all. I suppose that will have to wait until the next chapter?
Anyway please update soon because I have to find out what her story is and how they stop her! Also I love Teddy's full name. And Nicky is really awesome.
~Jess

Author's Response: Awww, I'm so glad you like it. All the information about her will be in the next chapter. Yay for liking Teddy's full name and I'm very happy that you like Nicky. He kind of deserves hugs and love after all I've put him through. :P

Thank you so much for enjoying this story and leaving such a lovely review!

Hey Sam!
So this chapter made me really nervous! This ghost is scary, and I really hope that they can get Ryan back without anyone getting hurt! But, I have a feeling that won't be the case... This story just gives me chills! I would hate being in a creepy house, and I don't blame Vic and Teddy for leaving! I can't wait for the next chapter! 10/10
Cassie :)

Author's Response: Hey, Cassie!

I admit, you being nervous and thinking the ghost is scary is exciting for me to hear - I feel like I've accomplished my goal with writing this story. :P

You'll find what will happen with Ryan and the others in the next chapter. ;)

This was oHMYGOD. This chapter was so tense, and I absolutely loved it. That scary spirit lady, just freaked me out. I knew Victoire made a mistake with wanting that creepy haunted shrieking shack house, and now some spirit is trying to kill her and her family. I had so many questions running through my head about what happened in that house. Like who was that spirit lady and what happened to her? What happened to her son? What crimes did she have to pay for?

Author's Response: Yep! She definitely made a mistake with the house! All your questions are answered in the last chapters! I hope you enjoy it!

Let it go on the record that you write some of the best stories ever. You should have a title, how about the Mystery Queen?
It's kind of fitting, because you really do write some of the most captivating stories. This story, and many of your other stories, had me hooked on the first chapter. Now back to this chapter, what is wrong with Victoire? That house sounds like the haunted house version of the shrieking shack. I wonder what happened to the old owners who left without renovating it? Was it something bad? And oh my god Teddy, there's always a catch, don't buy the house! ! ! ! !
I enjoyed reading this, and you did a great job at catching the readers attention and writing an intriguing first chapter.

Author's Response: Aww, thank you! Mystery Queen sounds awesome!

I know, you'd think that with Nicky's powers, she'd have walked the other way. But no, silly Vic. Two of the old owners ran away after the third died, naughty realtor didn't tell them that. ;)

I loved the reveal at the end of the lady wanting her baby, and somehow believing that Ryan is he. Is he? Reincarnated? Something else? This story has been such a thrill ride, and this chapter was the best so far.

Author's Response: I'm so glad you like it! Ah, you'll have to wait and see! ;)

Thank you so much for leaving a review! I can't wait for you to read the rest!

Creepy...
But seriously, you clearly have a talent and I'm glad that you're sharing it with us. Although it's only five chapters in, this story has me hooked for sure. I can't wait till you update!!
~Albus Potter's Woman

Author's Response: Ah, creepy is good. Very good. ;)

Aww, thank you for so much, for the compliments and this review; you've made my day. :D

Hi Sam!
This chapter was so good! I'm getting scared for Vic, Teddy, and Ryan though! I can't blame them for living after what happened. Hopefully they'll find out more about the house and whatever spirit is there won't do anything too bad first! 10/10
Cassie :)

Author's Response: Hey, Cassie!

It's a very scary time for them, yes. Their answers will come in the last chapters. :)

Oh no poor Teddy not being able to floo to his home, that can't be a good sign at all.
Neither is splinching! *hugs him* He's not having a good day at all!

Where is Vic? This isn't good at all!

What is Ryan seeing? This is so freaky! And why is Vic getting hotter and hotter? I'm so glad that they've apparated away. This poltergeist is one creepy thing.

Is Ryan just like Nicky?

:O OH MY! She thinks that Ryan is her baby!! I don't want her to get him.
This is so amazing! I'm so hooked on this story and I'm so glad that you're updating it quickly! I love your list by the way... not sure if I've mentioned my love for you list yet? :P

Just pure amazing Sam!

Author's Response: Haha. Very ominous.

Poor Teddy, it's been a very bad few days. Sadly, it will only get worse. ;(

No, Ryan is not like Nicky. Which is probably a good thing. Children are just better at seeing what adults cannot.

Oh Nicky, he doesn't want to go in that house I hope that he doesn't have to, I hope that Nicky's ghost person will tell him what's happening.

Kieron's apartment sounds impressive! He's got a great dad!

It's a poltergeist? That's scary... why can't it be like Peeves? Ahhh the Reapers! :D

Haha Cassie throwing the book at Kieron and him yelling at thin air is hilarious! :P

Kieron? Not being a lovely person? NEVER! :P

Oh Nicky! *hugs him tightly, but away from Kieron's reach incase he becomes jealous* I don't want him going crazy over this all. :-(

I loved this chapter! And I'm so excited to read more! Such a great story! I can't wait to see what happens next and if they'll be able to get rid of the poltergeist before it hurts someone too badly and before Nicky goes crazy.

Author's Response: He really does, but she doesn't want to admit that Nicky's ghosts aren't just scary stories. They always made her afraid.

"I didn't do it" is definitely the thing to do when you're prone to doing reckless and fun things that annoy and freak out your very sensible wife. :P

Hi Sam!
I loved this chapter, even if things are starting to get a little scarier! I'm nervous for what Ted and Nick are going to find, and to find out if Ryan can see the spirits in the house! I love how we're finding out details and things about the house very gradually. It makes me want to know more! Also, I loved Cassie's character! And not just because of her name ;) She has some sass, and seems like she is really emotional, which is fun to read since you write it so well! I can't wait for the next chapter! 10/10
Cassie :)

Author's Response: Hi, Cassie!

Scary is my thing. So yay. :P I'm glad you like that everything's been shown slowly, there's still more to come. And yay for liking Cassie, she's very sassy and cool. I think she's awesome! :D

Intriguing! And I like the idea that Nick is getting in on this one, finally. The hints that Ryan can sense or even see what is happening in his house is a great touch, too. So long as he doesn't say "They're here!" :) Speaking of poltergeists, perhaps a consult with Peeves? That'd just be crazy! Anyway, thanks for another great chapter with amazing characters.

Author's Response: Yeah, Nick is finally swallowing his fear and coming in. He'll do anything for family. Haha, Peeves! They'd definitely go to him if they could, but Peeves is a different type of Poltergeist and probably wouldn't be very helpful. ;)

You have me feeling even more sorry for Nick. I like how you have raised the bar of intrigue. The house is finished and they are now living there, but things have already started happening. And now you have an envelope that was found. I'm sure you have plans for that piece of information.

Great job on this set up.
Dark Whisper

P.S. Love the inner-wolf thing... I hope that actually helps the situation eventually.

Author's Response: Dark Whisper,

Feel very sorry for Nick, it's only going to get worse. Yep, there are big plans for that envelope.
